Sprocket 06B-1 z=22 with hub, hardened

Product Description

Sprocket 06B-1 z=22, hardened hub

Simplex sprocket 06B-1 with hardened hub, 22 teeth - designed for chain with a pitch of 3/8" (9.525 mm). The material is carbon steel C45E (EN 10083-1), and the teeth undergo induction hardening to 45-55 HRC - in accordance with DIN 8187 / ISO 606; the hub retains a lower core hardness, so it can be machined safely.

Technical data

Frequently asked questions

What should be used to preserve sprockets before a longer break in operation?

After cleaning with a brush and a technical cleaner, apply preservative grease or a thick, moisture-displacing spray oil to the entire surface of the sprocket. This will protect the carbon steel against a rusty film during a break in the workshop.

How do you cut a keyway in the hub of a sprocket?

We cut keyways precisely on slotting machines according to DIN 6885. If you do it yourself, maintain axial alignment and the correct width and depth of the keyway so that the key sits securely and is not sheared off.

How does uneven tooth wear affect machine vibration?

Worn teeth cause the so-called polygon effect - the chain drops off and climbs onto the teeth abruptly, which transmits vibrations to the shafts, destroys the bearings and leads to cracking of welds in the machine.

How do you correctly align sprockets during installation?

The driving and driven sprockets must be in one perfect line. You can use a long steel straightedge placed against the faces of both sprockets or a professional laser alignment tool. Even a slight angular deviation will quickly destroy the chain.

Where is this product used?

Typical applications of the 06B-1 sprocket: drives for pumps, mixers and industrial fans, as well as control systems for industrial gates and roller shutters, where resistance to continuous operation is required.
